Practice Areas: Criminal Defense
“I chose to work in criminal defense because everyone deserves proper representation when something as important as their liberty is at stake”.. “The thing I love about being a lawyer is helping others who are unfamiliar with the judicial process”.. There are two things you should know about Stephen Lebedevich – he’s a team player, and he likes to win (did we mention that, in his spare time, he’s a competitive volleyball player?) Stephen’ s experiences on the court have made him the lawyer that he is – he knows how to work with other people to achieve a common goal, and he is willing to put in long hours and tons of effort in order to improve. His competitive nature also means that he plays to win and takes his cases extremely seriously. Of course, Stephen knows how to have fun too, and is often the one lightening the mood in the office with his mini basketball hoop and world-cup attire (he’s always the first to sport a USA jersey).
